Administering tasks you need when generating and maintaining the content on your website

Two graphical user interfaces are provided to achieve this, these are accessible through any modern browser:

Classic UI

This UI has always been available in AEM for many years.

It is predominantly green.

It was designed for use on desktop devices.

It is no longer maintained.

The following documentation focuses on this classic UI. For information about authoring in the modern, touch-based UI, see the standard Authoring documentation.

Touch-Optimized UI

This is the modern, standard AEM UI.

It is predominantly grey, with a clean, flat interface.

It is designed for use on both touch and desktop devices (optimized for touch). The look and feel is the same on all devices, though viewing and selecting your resources differs slightly (taps versus clicks).
